Terry Tempest Williams -- "When Women Were Birds"
Terry Tempest Williams will speak about and sign her new book, When Women Were Birds, on Wednesday, June 13th at 7:30pm.
About the book:
Terry Tempest Williams’s mother told her: “I am leaving you all my journals, but you must promise me you won’t look at them until after I’m gone.” Readers of Williams’s memoir, Refuge, well remember that mother, who developed cancer as a result of nuclear testing. It was a shock to Williams to discover that her mother had kept journals. But not as much of a shock as what she found when she read them. In 54 chapters, Williams creates a lyrical meditation of the mystery of her mother's journals. When Women Were Birds is a kaleidoscope that keeps turning around the question “What does it mean to have a voice?”
